Burris Eliminator III Laser Rangefinder Rifle Scope
Burris Eliminator III Laser Rangefinder Rifle Scope - The Eliminator III 4-16x-50mm riflescope is the ultimate scope for long range shooting. The Eliminator automatically adjusts your aim point with a red dot at any range, any magnification for your speciwww.sportsmans.com
It'll probably work... until it doesn't. I'd focus on quality glass without electronic gizmos. Good glass will make shooting easier and more enjoyable.I really haven't looked at much. Mostly been a red dot guy on my 15's so figured scope on the 10 just to be different and have options.
Lots of good options listed and I appreciate @clanhanson sharing info about 2-12 being better than 1-10. I do have an LPVO 1-8 on one of my pistols.
It looks like several recommendations for the SWFA as a cost to quality leader, so I will look at those.

Experience = no. But figure more electronics, regardless the product, usually means (at least) three things: more to go wrong, more cost, and more weight. Since your OP mentioned "end of the world situation" you may want to emphasize scopes/sights that are reasonably simple, as opposed to the most complex possible.I really haven't looked at much.

I have the Arken on my AR10.Of these 2, both are brands recommended and her in classified, which would be a better option.

Having seen high speed footage of .308 gas weapons firing, the recoil is far from mild from the optic's perspective. Heft is good, hefty is durable. An AR10 18" with a red dot cripples its usability; if you want a battle rifle, get a battle rifle (SCAR, MARS-H 16", Bren, Tavor 7, etc). An AR10 will batter and ruin a cheap optic and cheap rings (yes, light rings are wimpy) fairly quickly.It's an AR10, already a heavy gun.
Adding an Arken SH4 or EP1 adds almost two pounds to it. The bigger problem is putting a large objective (50mm, etc) on an AR, it has to sit in high rings, which means your head is way above the buttstock, and thus you need a stock with an adjustable cheek riser.
I had a Sig Tango 6 1-8 FFP on mine for a while. Outstanding glass, rugged AF, but heavy like a piano. I sold it.
I currently have a Sightron S-Tac. It's heavier than I'd like, but the optical performance is superb. Not my best scope, but I certainly didn't pay much for it.
If you want something with excellent clarity and zoom, smaller objective so it doesn't sit so high above the rifle, and *very* affordable, I'd look at the Burris Fullfield E1, ~$180 on Amazon : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019KDSRBG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
A lot of people say get beefy rings, but I find simple, light ones work great. The recoil on an AR10 is pretty mild, and you don't need all the heft in your rings.
Edit to add, I have the Burris on my 260 Rem mountain rifle.
Yah, OK. Go for it. I have light, QD rings holding mine, work great and zero problems in over 400 rounds. No loss of zero, no drift, no broken scope. A lighter scope doesn't demand as beefy a ring because of the radically different forcesHaving seen high speed footage of .308 gas weapons firing, the recoil is far from mild from the optic's perspective.
